Shaping the Future of Water Services Building an Intelligence-based Water Industry Mr. Michael O’Leary / Mr. Lar Spain Operations Support Services Manager / Asset Information Lead Irish Water Introduction • • • • • • 2 Background Drivers Making Information Work Systems Integration Current Status Background • Information age • New technologies, intelligence is available • Use the information, utility management, customer service • Industry norms • 2000 plants • Fragmented network • Central repository 3 Background • Build on what’s there - SCADA - Telemetry - MapInfo - CIS - GIS - AMR • Consolidate • Gather information once • Develop expertise • Manage and take control of change 4 Drivers • Diminishing budgets, increased expectation • Staffing, capture institutional knowledge • Inventory management • Inform decision making • Customer focus • Social media 5 Drivers • Forward planning - Drinking Water Safety Plans - Emergency response, e.g. storm Darwin - Water Framework Directive - Development plans • Stakeholder Expectation - EPA - CER - HSE - DECLG - Customers, domestic and non-domestic 6 Making Information Work For Us • • • • • • • 7 Operations and maintenance Asset management Catchment management Incident management Customer information, advice Above ground, plants Below ground, networks Requirements – Above Ground • • • • • • • • • • 8 Plant maintenance, planned Plant alarms, monitoring KPI’s, real time information Quality control Compliance, managing, reporting Operating performance, costs, optimisation Energy management DW demand management Storm flows management Investment intervention, planning Requirements – below ground • • • • • • • • 9 Network management Pressure, flows, bursts, blockages, overflows Metering, DMAs Water Conservation Industrial inputs Mapping Investment intervention, planning Facilitate development, housing, employment Key Systems • Telemetry/SCADA – – – – • Monitoring Alarms Control Remote Asset Management Asset Management System - Maximo. – Work Order generation and tracking – Maintenance Tracking – Planned & Reactive – Repository of Information on Assets (Above Ground) • Modelling. – Wastewater – Water • GIS – Arc GIS for Water Utilities (AG4WU). – Repository for Information on Assets (Below Ground) – Visualisation & Reporting – Work, Incidents, Bursts, any Spatial Data. – Closely integrated with Maximo. 10 Telemetry/SCADA • Initial Phase - Connecting into many County-wide SCADA systems and Dublin Region Telemetry System – view initially • Approx. 6 Suppliers, cover/partly cover 32 out of 34 LAs • Establish National Control Centre - Operations • Next Phase – extract data from these systems and input to IW Database – produce reports National/Regional/County/Site • In parallel - Engaging with Telemetry Expert Consultant to define strategy for National solution • Develop National system • Operational View; Incident Management; Alarms; Automation; Asset Performance. 11 Maximo • Has gone live with all LAs • 5 Pilot Counties currently gathering Asset Information (Cavan, Fingal, Cork City, Carlow, Westmeath) • Hand-held units being trialled – easier data collection – X-Y coordinates. • Preventative Maintenance plans being collected/prepared. • Aligning this with GIS data model • >7,700 Above Ground Asset (Installations) • Manage Work and Monitor Asset Performance 12 Modelling • Two Specialist Modellers – One Water & One Wastewater. • Three Modeller each at present • Already working on – Updating of Dublin Region Water Models – Rathmines & Pembroke Sewer brief – Dublin City Centre Drainage models – involved in brief & auditing • Cataloguing models submitted in Fact Finding – 154 Water Models. – 110 Wastewater Models • Supports Planning/New Connections • New Investments • Risk Assessment 13 Irish Water Enduring GIS – - High Level Overview • The solution is ESRIs ArcGIS for Water Utilities; a water utility configuration that sits on top of the ESRI ArcGIS platform. • The solution is a Commercial off the shelf (COTS) product. • The solution caters for Drinking Water, Waste Water and Storm Water GIS assets. • The solution is an Enterprise GIS comprised of Desktop, Mobile and Web Based Applications (web maps). Extensive use will be made of the ArcGIS Online Portal. • The solution went live on 25th August and is available to Water Services in all Local Authorities. 15 GIS - Data • Data Migration – Based on data submitted up to 2nd May 2014 – 34 LAs; 11 different formats Water; 10 formats Drainag – CIS 2 & 4, Mapdrain, FRAMME, SuS25, etc • Collected Drainage data from Survey Contractors – USA, Precision, Environmental Techniques, McAllister • Integration of GIS & Maximo data • Supports all Operational activities – – – – 16 Leakage Metering Planned Maintenance e.g. Age of mains – planned replacement GIS Team – Post Go-Live • Top Priority – updating Agglomerations, WSZs and DMAs. • Engage with LAs for data collection/updating – Dealing with Digitising backlog – data freeze – RPS Digitising Team lined up – already on Framework – Missing Data/Poor Quality data – Source/Survey – Training the LA Digitising Teams – Day to Day Support – QA/QC of all digitised Data – Set up LA User Group • Engage with IW Business for GIS-Related Services – Set Up IW User Group – Service Requests for spatial data – Advice/Support for Data Mining and Presentation of Data 19 Asset Information Feature Counts -Water Water Below Ground Selected Feature Class Feature Count Length /km Air Valve 34,479 Fittings 493,798 Flow Control Valves 2,932 Hydrants 148,451 Network Meters 28,221 System Valves 229,623 Laterals (Service/Comm) 307,003 6,293 Water Mains (of which 6,055Km Private) 713,390 61,183 20 Asset Information Feature Counts - Drainage 21 Asset Information Foul & Combined Data 22 Watermain Data 23 Water Distribution Material & Decade Sum of Length Column Labels Material <1930 1930-1949 1950-1959 1960-1969 1970-1979 1980-1989 1990-1999 >=2000 Unknown Total length (m) Asbestos 5,442,067 97,313 363,937 329,083 753,755 569,004 97,110 376,373 8,028,642 Cast-Iron 2,682,256 838,517 626,900 428,186 229,132 48,175 31,641 204,509 5,089,317 16,895 17,409 124 12,014 9,763 32,720 284 174 89,384 Cast-Iron Cement Lined Concrete Copper Ductile Iron Ductile Iron - Lined GRP 7 17 24 487 72 161 23 15 18 6 608,611 6,247 4,625 5,101 71,774 111,977 313,238 925,414 781 550 27 61 353 16,973 75,632 44,446 98,057 236,099 62 1,215 6,638 5,838,144 725 2,047,712 3,574 1,788 59 2,895 78 4,914 8 443 3,971 16,574 80,096 437,885 532,279 386,340 1,954,616 6,595 7,381 212,517 1 153 654 1,758 173 12,500 967,202 1,194,957 Lead 3,038 2,762 2,829 425 140 350 9,544 MDPE 96,248 862 1,586 27,942 18,744 19,084 45,861 142,191 352,518 MOPVC 22,377 33,626 375,366 431,374 1,273 59 20 247 28,658 36,552 Gun Metal HDPE 2,426,382 Hepworth PE 786 HPPE PE 4 5,364 Profuse PE 930 3 109 3,610 343 926 928 31,695 43,858 PSC/PCC 8,100 PV 3,655 4,069 7,724 458 56,308 56,766 PVC-A 1 8,396 PVC-O PVC-u 9,805 Spun Iron Steel Unknown uPVC GI - Galvanised Steel 5,369 3,513 2,877 6,053 17,785 964 892 12,382 348 7,421 97 39,888 10,949 5,551 6,690 580 812 400 1,042 38,443 5,927 9,082 46,721 121,906 168,502 90,458 1,301,907 6,108,311 12,283,157 68,627 479,810 1,906,992 3,656,125 2,959,720 2,873,122 6,499,339 756 182 359 28,215,753 Asset Information 209 100,889 12,419 1,053,221 1,530,500 333 30,727,227 1,297 1 Total length (m) 209 22,910 4,363,808 HPPE/PE100 24 50,362 2,865,823 5,330,944 8,133 4,525,975 3,980,500 13,007,361 8,134 1,058 60,511,136 Conclusions • Many systems needed to deliver on Intelligence-Based Water Industry • Vital for service delivery into the Future • Good start has been made, but… • A long way to go yet – Data Poor/Missing - Data Gathering – never ending – Reliability – good quality & reliable flow – Data we can all depend on. 25
